- This ride absolutely DESTROYED my confidence! But it also gave me something to work towards! Now I've gotta spend some more time practicing rock rolls and drops so I can ride some of this stuff without looking like a damned FOOL! Either way it was fun and I always enjoy riding with friends.

Cool to see my home trails in a vid. You just got to commit and send it .
Appreciate the honest review of Angwin. I just rode there for the first time after watching your vid.
I gotta admit. I'm definitely due for a redemption ride out here. This place really intimidated me the first time I rode there blind. I'm gonna get Bike Somm to show me around and I'm CONFIDENT I'll clear at LEAST 50% of the terrain this time! 😂
Ok so now imagine riding this place in the dark for the first 10-15 times before ever seeing in the sun lol! Local bike shop mechanic took me around there when I first moved out to Napa. Every Friday night it was FNL “Friday night lights”. First time I went in the sun I was like what the heck did you take me out to?! Love Angwin! Lots more trails to ride here. Cool to see you out on our local Napa trails.
Oh man! I'd be terrified! I definitely want to get back out there soon now that my technical skill has increased a bit. When I rode Colorado for 9 days I came back a different rider. So much tech that I feel so much more comfortable with sketchy rock rolls and steep descents.
Terrifying is an understatement !!! Holy cow patties!!
See guys! Rhonda gets it!!!! I'm not a baby. I'm an accomplished rider who also happens to have a TH-cam channel. Not a Man-Child with an overactive imagination who ALSO happens to ride bikes!
The Calirado Kid I'm still learning what y'all (not riding of coarse),, what things you all have to overcome,, Matt was just telling me the other day, how dry the trails were,, and that it makes for no grip on your wheels... See an ole woman wouldn't think of that🤓,, and tell him to stop scaring his mother😳!
And did he go down that weird looking rock thing ,, the video cut there,, so didn't know if he did,, or couldn't tell.
@@rhondaduck6276 No. He totally chickened out. But he was telling everyone he went down it in the parking lot! 😂 Just kidding Matt! Love you buddy!
The Calirado Kid 🤗,, good to hear ... Forgot to say, Great video!!
Fun place for sure! Was lucky enough to have a tour guide last time i was there. Even then though, those surprise rocks after ridiculous fast flow really got me... hahaha
I think that’s the trick! We spent a lot of time looking at Trailforks which kinda slowed the flow of the ride. But we still had a blast. It was cool to see a place like this in NorCal!
@@CaliradoKid yea it was cool. Bike Somm just towed us in blind. First time meeting him too. He didn't give us any description of what the trails or features were. We just put our trust in him and followed him like lemmings... HAHA
It's like if "surprise!" was followed by a ambulance ride
100%! Then I go watch BikeSomm’s video and he goes over everything with ease. Damnit! I’m just gonna tell everyone I walked all the features for the comedic effect!
@@CaliradoKid That's cause Jake has talent & puts in the time aka we're not so good at this HAHA
Glad to see you enjoying my backyard!
One of the best backyards in the world! I will say Angwin absolutely kicked me ass. So I’m definitely gonna have a redemption ride out there one day soon!
Looks fun but during hero dirt season...lol
but blown out dirt makes great videos... :P
@@mrpercussive 😂
Protecting my lungs from Covid by breathing in some sweet sweet Angwin dirt!
@@CaliradoKid Anguine!
@@jeremykeith4348 You and I are a sophisticated bunch! We'll discuss over some Old Fashioned's soon!
Dang you GoPro effect! That steep section looks totally flat. Oh and btw, I like the "fancy" pronunciation better. :)
Right?! It’s just more sophisticated all around! That’s me. Classy!
The Calirado Kid 😂
Setting it up for a redemption ride. I see what you did there 😃
Next time I’m there. Gap JUMP!!
Just subbed, good videos! I want to ride "Angwin-a" soon, looks fun. Might need a trail guide though 🤔.
Thanks man! Yea that place is a maze of awesome! And there’s a really cool bike park up top too if you can find it! Definitely recommend a good guide for your first time out there. It’s wild how many trails there are.
You needed the new GG Gnarvana for all the Gnarlatude!
Whoa. I may need to steal this. AMAZING! 😂
Some of that stuff looked sketchy as hell, Joe. Sounded and looked like no grip for a good portion of it. Is it strange that I want to ride it after watching this vid? I know, I have a sickness for sure. Great stuff as always, bud!
Yea! It was LOOSE out there. The combination of steep trail and loose dirt always makes me nervous.
I sense a redemption rock roll video coming lol
Yea no kidding! I had a crash the day before and this place just had my number! There will definitely have to be a redemption ride in the future!
I think I need to be there for that lol
Just dont run over my glasses this time hahahaha
@@thepedalingchef1738 Ok now I feel bad again! 😂
